I've been in the Er twice in the last week, the first time I got diagnosed with something new, GERD, but this time they said it was panic. Being this has been going on every day for 9 months now, I always wonder if it is possible to have panic attacks every day. Which it seems I have been. They've checked again the normal things, and it's come back normal.
They took me off of Xanax and put me on Ativan, which seems to make me feel weird before it settles down, but that scares me too, cause it feels like I struggle to breath more for awhile. Should I just trust in the doctors, or try to accept it is panic everyday or go in for more tests. I know being in denial about this can continue to hurt me, I just can't shake the fear that something else might be wrong with me.
And I haven't been on the boards much, because I have been trying to beat this. But after a month or so...just feels like I'm not getting anywhere.
